>>> And so to Obama. I'm sorry that yet again I need to ask how possibly he could have caused this. It seems perfectly clear that fake reports were passed up the chain and were believed long before they reached Obama, if they ever did. His direct reports probably even took credit for the success. I guess it's true that "the buck stops here" when you're top dog, but that's a principle not a reason to pin everything on him.

>>>Barack Obama spoke of these issues in the 2008-2009 period and laid some blame on the prior administration. He brought neither hide nor hair of executive/project management experience to the table, to do anything to address it. His "it didn't bubble to the surface" characterizes his "fat and happy" approach of sitting back. He has described himself as lazy - I agree with him 100%

>>>His 2008 campaign was the biggest lot of empty promises in history.

>>>You "guess" it's true that the buck stops here? Careful there, JR...don't strain a muscle with the admission. <s>
